Is This Workshop for Me?

Summary

If you’ve ever built an API in Node.js before, then this workshop is for you! The GraphQL topics covered are closer to the advanced side, but an experienced Node.js developer could follow along. Also, if you have experience building GraphQL APIs but never in production, this workshop is also for you. If you’ve only ever used GraphQL client side, you also benefit from this workshop.
